The doctor knows me, and I'll speak to Mr.Ross for her.

Do you get a bit of dinner, and hearten yourself up for it; and we'll set off as soon as she's awake." Old Oliver turned away comforted, and prepared his own and Tony's dinner, and put a mince-pie into the oven to be ready to tempt Dolly's appetite when she awoke.

But she slept heavily all the afternoon till it was almost dark outside, and the lamps were being lit, when she awoke, restless and feverish.
"Would Dolly like to go to that nice place, where the little girls had the dolls and the music ?" asked Tony, in a quavering voice which he could scarcely keep from sobs; "the good place where Tony got well again, and they gave him his new clothes?
Everybody 'ud be so wery kind to poor little Dolly, and she'd come home again, quite cured and strong, like Tony was." "Yes, yes!" cried Dolly, eagerly, raising herself up in his arms; "it's a nice place, and the sun shines, and Dolly 'ud like to go.

Only she'll be sure to come back to gan-pa." It was some time yet before they were quite ready to start, though Dolly could not be coaxed to eat the hot mince-pie, or anything else.

Old Oliver had to get himself into his drab overcoat, and the ailing child had to be protected in the best way they could against the searching wind.
